New Fire Safety / Emergency Action Plan Requirements

Last week Adonis Taylor, EAP Coordinator, and Blake Grosch, Director of Sales & Marketing, attended the Bureau of Fire Prevention’s Comprehensive FS / EAP Review Session to gain further insight on the new guidelines that went into effect on August 1st. RDM was invited due to its status as a primary vendor in this sector. In attendance were also representatives from Crocker Fire Drill, Quality Fire Prevention, and Asymmetric Strategic Initiatives.

Although the FDNY has sound reasoning for its updated requirements and has established procedures to achieve compliance, the process, as many building managers and fire consultants have grumbled, is still in development. The purpose of this meeting was to hatch out and define some of the gray areas with Captain Joe Evangelista who oversees the FDNY’s FS / EAP system.

At certain points during the session, Captain Evangelista made decisions on the spot based on the attendees’ suggestions. He furthered added that this is a work in process and that he is willing to listen to make the process clear and pain free.

Based on the discussion and RDM’s focus on EAP / FS floor plan and riser diagram creation, we were able to confirm the following points about questions our clients have raised with us:
